After waiting countless years, today, I finally see the light of day. Hahaha, a burst of loud laughter suddenly emerged from the twin pupils, entering Lin Xiao’s mind.
Immediately, a terrifying consciousness surged out from the Haoran Battle Pupils, rushing through the meridians towards Lin Xiao’s mind.
In Lin Xiao’s mind, spiritual power surged, activating spiritual energy to block the path of this powerful consciousness.
There’s still spiritual energy?
The consciousness was startled, then revealed great joy: You, boy, are actually a fifth-grade senior spiritual controller with spiritual energy. After my rebirth, I will be invincible in the world, hahaha.
The consciousness of the Haoran Battle Pupils let out another burst of wild laughter. The rolling waves of consciousness surged forth, pushing aside all spiritual energy. A terrifying pressure enveloped Lin Xiao’s entire sea of consciousness.
From now on, I am you!
As it spoke, the Haoran Battle Pupils’ consciousness raised a hand. The entire palm instantly swelled, as if transforming into a colossal hand capable of destroying the world, covering Lin Xiao’s entire mind. The terrifying pressure of the consciousness surged mightily.
Under this fearsome pressure, not only could no consciousness capable of fighting the Haoran Battle Pupils’ consciousness condense, but even Lin Xiao’s own consciousness felt blurred. In an instant, he fell into a dazed state.
The consciousness of the Haoran Battle Pupils was simply too terrifying.
Sss!
However, at that moment, something resembling an eyeball flowed through Lin Xiao’s meridians to the back of his twin pupils.
A terrifying suction force immediately surged from the eyeball-like object, enveloping the Haoran Battle Pupils.
Then, the Haoran Battle Pupils, which were about to fully merge with Lin Xiao’s eyes, were forcibly stripped away, drawn into the meridians, and absorbed into that sphere.
In that instant, the hand of the Haoran Battle Pupils’ consciousness, about to strike in Lin Xiao’s mind, froze in place.
Then, its conscious body seemed to be sucked in as well. The entire consciousness was pulled out of Lin Xiao’s mind by an invisible force, and the massive hand was swiftly drawn out along with it.
Ominous thing! You actually have this ominous thing in your body! No!!!
A voice filled with utter horror rang out, then fell completely silent.
Lin Xiao’s consciousness gradually began to recover.
After a few breaths, the consciousness of the Haoran Battle Pupils showed no further signs of activity.
The Haoran Battle Pupils themselves also vanished from Lin Xiao’s perception.
At this moment, Lin Xiao let out a long sigh of relief.
The consciousness of the Haoran Battle Pupils was far too terrifying. He had nearly been possessed.
He also knew it was the Heavenly Eye that had devoured the Haoran Battle Pupils.
The consciousness of the Haoran Battle Pupils was intricately linked to the pupils themselves. Once the Haoran Battle Pupils were devoured, their consciousness was consumed along with them.
This time, it was the Heavenly Eye that saved his life.
However, this was likely just the Heavenly Eye’s instinct to devour treasures of heaven and earth.
Moreover, the consciousness of the Haoran Battle Pupils, an ancient relic tens of thousands of years old, was so terrified that it called the Heavenly Eye an ominous thing. This suggested that the Heavenly Eye might truly be extraordinary.
Carrying it within his body could pose a significant threat to him.
But for now, Lin Xiao couldn’t worry about that. He figured the Heavenly Eye wouldn’t bring him to an ominous fate so soon.
Blinking, Lin Xiao’s eyes were streaked with blood, causing some pain, but fortunately, there was no serious harm.
The Haoran Battle Pupils had been devoured. If the Great Elder and the others found out, who knows what they would think? Lin Xiao sighed helplessly.
The Haoran Battle Pupils, a relic from ancient times, belonged to Meng Haoran, the founding ancestor of the Haoran Sect. Their combat power must have been immensely formidable.
Yet, they were passed down to later generations, only to be devoured outright.
Let alone Yun Jing and the others vomiting blood in shock, even Meng Haoran himself, if he knew, would probably be so furious he’d come back to life.
He had set up such a grand trial to pass them down, only for them to be devoured by a mysterious entity in the end.
Of course, no one could have anticipated that the Haoran Battle Pupils would develop a consciousness. For the outside world, the devouring of the Haoran Battle Pupils might not be a bad thing.
No one knew what intentions the consciousness of the Haoran Battle Pupils held.
If it were released, it might even cause a catastrophe.
The Haoran Battle Pupils must have possessed terrifying combat power. What a pity. The Heavenly Eye devours treasures of heaven and earth, not just consciousness. Lin Xiao shook his head with a sigh of regret.
Sss!
At that moment, Lin Xiao felt a vast, unparalleled Haoran righteous energy, like a flood, bursting forth near his dantian, surging into it.
This Haoran righteous energy was incredibly rich, pure to the extreme, almost transforming into a tempering force, fiercely pouring into his dantian.
Feedback from the Heavenly Eye?
Lin Xiao was startled, then revealed a look of joy.
Just as when the Heavenly Eye devoured the Yuan Spirit Pool, for some reason, it had also returned the Yuan Spirit Pool’s energy, allowing him to break through.
The last time, refining the Shengshi Wall yielded no feedback. But this time, devouring the Haoran Battle Pupils brought feedback once again.
In that moment, Lin Xiao didn’t hesitate and began cultivating with all his might, using the Heavenly Eye’s feedback to charge toward the dantian realm.
His dantian was continuously tempered and washed by the pure Haoran righteous energy. The nine layers of his dantian had already merged. Now, only the final layer remained.
If he could merge the final layer, he would reach the Martial Monarch realm.
At this time, below the peak of Haoran Mountain.
Does it feel like something is missing from Haoran Mountain? Could it be that the boy reached the summit? What did he obtain? At nine thousand zhang, an aged figure exclaimed, his eyes filled with deep anticipation.
Don’t you feel that something seems missing in Haoran Mountain? At eight thousand zhang, Yun Jing had a similar sensation and asked Zhong Moyang below.
I feel it too, but I’m not sure exactly what’s missing. It might just be an illusion, Zhong Moyang replied, somewhat puzzled.
Yun Jing didn’t dwell on it further, shaking his head with a sigh: That Lin Xiao, I wonder how far he’s climbed. It’s been fifteen days, and there’s still no word.
Five more days passed. At this moment, on the peak of Haoran Mountain, amid the dense Haoran righteous energy surrounding it, a towering aura burst forth from Lin Xiao’s body. The surrounding Haoran righteous energy was pushed outward in all directions, and a terrifying pressure surged forth, filling the entire peak of Haoran Mountain.
Lin Xiao’s eyes snapped open, two beams of searing light flashing in them.
His dantian had fully merged, now like a chaotic void, brimming with endless power.
At this moment, Lin Xiao felt his strength was countless times greater than before, as if a single move could summon overwhelming power.
A world-shaking force surged ceaselessly in his chaotic dantian, its terrifying aura ravaging all directions.
Martial Monarch, first level! With a soft exclamation, a surging battle intent radiated from Lin Xiao. He clenched his fists, and the surrounding air seemed to shatter. A terrifying combat power flowed through his meridians, enduring without end.
